\ingroup PkgIOstreams
All classes in the \cgal `Kernel` provide input and output operators for
IOStreams. The basic task of such an operator is to produce a
representation of an object that can be written as a sequence of
characters on devices as a console, a file, or a pipe. The enum `Mode` distinguish between three different printing formats.
In `ASCII` mode, numbers
e.g. the coordinates of a point or
the coefficients of a line, are written
in a machine independent format.
In <span class="textsc">BINARY</span> mode, data are written
in a binary format, e.g. a double is represented
as a sequence of four byte. The format depends on the machine.
The mode <span class="textsc">PRETTY</span>
serves mainly for debugging as the type of the geometric
object is written, as well as the data defining the object. For example
for a point at the origin with %Cartesian double coordinates, the output
would be `PointC2(0.0, 0.0)`. At the moment \cgal does not
provide input operations for pretty printed data. By default a stream
is in <span class="textsc">Ascii</span> mode.

\ingroup PkgIOstreams
The purpose of `Output_rep` is to provide a way to control output formatting that works independently of the object's stream output operator.
If you dont specialize `Output_rep` for `T`, `T`'s stream output operator is called from within `Output_rep`, by default. If you want another behaviour for your type `T`, you have to provide a specialization for that type. Furthermore, you can provide specializations with a second template parameter (a formatting tag). The second template parameter defaults to `Null_tag` and means *default behaviour*.
Specializations of `Output_rep` should provide the following features:
\code{.cpp}
template< class F >
struct Output_rep< Some_type, F > {
Output_rep( const Some_type& t );
std::ostream& operator()( std::ostream& out ) const;
};
\endcode
You can also specialize for a formatting tag `F`.

\brief Inserts object `c` in the stream `os`. Returns `os`.
\cgal defines output operators for classes that are derived
from the class `ostream`. This allows to write to ostreams
as `cout` or `cerr`, as well as to `std::ostringstream`
and `std::ofstream`.
The output operator is defined for all classes in the \cgal `Kernel` and for the class `Color` as well.
